During the course, graduate students visit CERN for 3-4 weeks,and rest of the project is distributed globally in the premises of the participating universities. Thispaper focuses on the second iteration of the course, which was done in collaboration with 7universities, across 8 time zones and with 46 students from engineering

achieved, as judged by the students. • How can we improve this course? • Which experiments provide more stimulation, thus making them more enjoyable. II. Laboratory Teaching ApproachThe class was divided into groups of two students for each experiment. The first week of the coursewas dedicated to covering some important concepts of physics relevant to the experiments. Whileconducting the experiments the students were required to plot as they take data, typically afterevery three data points, in order to decide where to take the next few data points. Upon completionof each section of an experiment, interactive discussions were employed between students and theinstructors. This step-by-step method of checking the students

Somestudents enroll in courses without a clear track in mind. Because of students' diversebackground, it is tough to reach all low visualizers outside the classroom who lackmotivation.

He stated that “Children are usually nottaught to think critically by their parents, by their kindergarten teacher, by any teachers. Mostlikely, the majority of their teachers are not critical thinkers.” After several decades, we still face the same issue in our classrooms - how to teach ourstudents to be critical thinkers.
